Why use Western Towing for Caravan Servicing.
What you need to Know about Annual Caravan Servicing
Our in-depth servicing covers more than 70 checked points and takes a minimum of 4 hours to complete.
Caravan servicing at Western Towing includes, but not limited to:
- Chassis and Running Gear.
When the caravan is in position for its service, our engineers lift the tourer off its wheels and safely place it on prop stands. This gives us the access required to check the chassis for cracks and ensure the bolts are tight. A full check of the coupling and Jockey wheel is completed which includes removing dirt and old grease to be replaced with fresh grease and lubricant. If fitted the stabiliser pads are checked for contamination of grease and paint from the towball, a common problem when users are new to coupling head stabilisers. See link for more information on towball preparation *LINK*. The Engineers will then move onto the Axle(s), Brakes and Hubs to ensure they all meet the required NCC and AWS standards and the equipment is adjusted to the manufacture’s guidelines. Tyres are then checked, firstly for the manufacturers’ date of production, followed by defects and tyre pressure. The tyre checks include the caravan spare wheel, where the engineers ensure the wheel is accessible. We also remove the wheel and lubricate the wheel carrier to prevent any nasty surprises on the side of the road. Most insurance companies will not cover the tourer if the tyres are older than 7 years, Western Towing advises 5 years in line with the NCC and AWS approved workshop scheme.
We look forward to hearing from you.
